Best thing to do? Take them off and clean them? Or stick some cleaner in through the tank?

Yeah if you unplug the lambda it runs a lot better than a buggered one! I had to change mine as the reading were way off just like yours.

I would say airflow meter with them readings but you usually get a fault light when they go.
Unplug it and see if it cures the missing.
